What does it mean if a guy calls you, "weird, in a good way"?

[SteveSmith1985]

I have said this to MANY women (some friends some... i was interested in). And I suppose it's a 'weird' thing to say. It would be a strange thing to hear about yourself... if I step back and think about what it might be like to be on the receiving end.

It's a good thing I stumbled upon your question. I am truly the ideal person to give you a little insight here.

"Weird, in a good way" is one of the biggest compliments I could possibly give someone (a girl/woman). It means...

Wow... I'm having all sorts of memories of the people I've said that about. All of them are memorable for their awesomeness...

Alright... so it kinda means:

-You are unique ("I've never met someone quite like you before)
-You are amusing (makes you smile)
- You are interesting
-You are fun
-You are funny
- He enjoys your company
-He wants to get to know you better
-You are someone who stands out (to him) from other women.

I think that's sort of the essence of it.

As you can see, it doesn't have to be romantic. I've definitely said it to women who I saw as a friend. In which case... It meant I thought they were just AWESOME as a person. I've also DEFINITELY said it to women I was romantically interested in. You'll have to decide which one seems more likely based on your situation.

It is, however, a compliment of the highest (If this dude knows what "weird in a good way" means... in the way I use it).
There is NOTHING of the negative connotations of "weird" about it whatsoever. It's a total compliment... and a BIG ONE. like BIG. At least, that's what I mean when I say a girl or a woman is "weird in a good way" :)

Hope that helps (ya weirdo) ;)

Speaking from experience. Guys sometimes say things that they think is complimentary but it could come off as offensive.

I once told a girl she looked older with her glasses, mind you I’m attracted to older women and I didn’t mean OLD. She looked like a woman, not a little girl. Anyway the more I tried to explain it, the worse it got. Next time I’ll just say “Wow, you’re gorgeous.”

Anyway I imagine he means that you’re not like a lot of girls that he’s dealt with and that you react differently to things. It might confuse him but in a good way. He thinks you’re unique and rare.

It's my typical compliment tbh, whenever I like action movies or loads of games typically, or when I say I do enjoy cooking and baking I just get distracted easily

Thanks for the mho

[silvermoon84]

All it means is that he sees things about you that he considers unique and he likes that. Nothing wrong with that 😊

[silvermoon84]

Thanks for mho

It means that you are different in a good way? We men are usually very literal with what we mean when we say something.

You might have some quirks of peculiarities that make you "weird" but that he likes (doesn't necessarily need to be in a romantic way though).

[SeryCoola]

You have a special or uncommon trait, or you do or you did something cute but unusual right before he said that. Don't worry, it's 100% with good intention and most likely he likes you more because of that, if you are already in a relationship, or he empathizes you, if you are just friends. An example for when I said that to a girl was when I heard her laugh like a donkey and she was very embarrassed about that, but at that point I realized how much I like her.

It is a question of perception about individuality and your desire to be "Mainstream" - If I was to call someone "weird in a good way" , I would mean they are a bit different (not in a way out anti social way but more of an individual) which to me is a very good thing whether quirky, arty, deep, thoughtful etc now there may be those who prefer to be "Popular", "Part Of The Scene" etc
To your question I believe it was meant as a compliment, how much of a one is up to you

[Liadon]

In my view that statement means different in a refreshing way. When you get so many people with the same sorts of personality traits finding someone with a not destructive difference it can be refreshing and aid in being able to enjoy time with each other more and can help build feelings that your partner is special.

[J3nny]

you’re cool, interesting, fun, not like the other girls but in a good way. it’s positive

[hellionthesagereborn]

That your different then other girls/people and they appreciate that and it amuses them (again, in a good way they find it endearing not off putting). Its a compliment.

[IamStag]

Sometimes it's a way to say that the one is unique, she stands out from the crowd. Heard from teens when they did not understand what they see but they did find her personality attractive.

[Rajdlk]

Guys dont say weird in a good or bad way they only say it when they dont have any other word to say like beautiful, heroic, crazy.. so instead they use this word

[talka20]

That means he prolly like wierdos and the way he finds u weird he attracts to u by that... like somethin almost perfect for him id say just as he likes

[Mamaganja]

If he says in a good way then I’d assume that he finds you different than most and that is a plus in his book.

[hsshannah96]

It means they think you’re too innocent and that they can. Take advantage of you

taken from my personal experience

[lightbulb27]

he likes you, you are quirky but it's cute.

not suer if it stays that way or gets annoying, depends.

[StephenCF]

It means you’re different than most girls he knew before, again in a good way. I personally like to be considered weird in a good way, it shows I have intrigue 👍🏻

[Dulaney10]

Own it girl lol being weird isn’t always a bad thing... be yourself... maybe your not like other girls he’s met and he likeS that

[Sevenpointfive]

i've had a girl use this as a pick up line. she was trying to mean she's weird. she was a little too weird for me

[Neroyamato2]

He maybe shy and wants to tell you he likes you without coming off too obvious

[ImagineSketchy]

You are not like the other run of the mill people he's comparing you to. You're different and different is good.

[ForteExe]

Unrelated to the question, but am I the only one who looked at the picture here and thought "her boobs are massive but a bit lopsided... oh wait. That's a pillow..."?

[Ripper_E]

He means that you are weird, but in a good way.
I don't know why girls try to find some hidden meaning behind a man's words.

[aWes0MeNeSs]

Maybe you're quirky or different in a way he finds endearing or relatable.
